Umm... they're all real bands, none of them are made up, and none of them are local, but I guess you could call them "underground" if you really want to.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, Linkin Park and Good Charlotte suck monkey testicles..... punk rock sucks. Either listen to rock 'n roll or alternative. No need to stoop to listening to Linkin Park. If you want that, I'll use the talk function on AIM and scream into my microphone
BTW, I bought Fuel's new album Natural Selection yesterday...not bad

No need to stoop to listening to Linkin Park. If you want that, I'll use the talk function on AIM and scream into my microphone I second that.

...Too bad all those bands are shitheads...[/opinion] Agreed. None of them are musically astounding or lyrically interesting. But then again, I hate the mainstream music on the radio right now. Some of those damned "songs" give me a headache. They really do.

Well, I agree that they are dedicated to their fans (LPU) and work hard on their album, but still, I just don't find their lyrics or music that interesting.

But good charlotte has the most ugliest lyrics ever. They dont make any sense!

[glow=ruby,2,300]Heh, yes they had a difficulties coming up with the new Lyrics for Meteora, and so very little time....that's why Hybrid Theory sounds better, IMO[/glow]

The Village People are dedicated to their fans too, but does that mean they have talent? Debatable.....
While I don't doubt LP works hard on their lyrics and such, that mean they are talented. While I'll admit some of their songs are well-written, for the most part the lyrics are very superficial and rehash themes from other songs. Basically most of the songs have something to do with: being rejected, don't ignore me, you'll be sorry when I'm not here, I trusted you and you betrayed me, you think you're always right but you're not, yada yada yada.
While you're right, they're not as "punk" as say Sum 41 or as shitty as Good Charlotte, their lyrics are generally the essence of punk

Exactly, which is why I don't like their lyrics. I'm getting sick of them singing about the same teen angsty things over and over again. Their lyrics lack originality too. I'd rather listen to songs with lyrics that don't make much sense (like Matthew Good Band's songs). At least they're original and have variety. And well, the lyrics do have different meanings, you just have to look into them more.

Well, for one thing, I'd like to hear lyrics that aren't about the things DT listed and it'd help if their music was more interesting too. Their guitar chords all sound the same.

Chester (vocals) who writes the lyrics, listens and is influenced by Metallica, so it would only make sense for him to write the songs/lyrics he does....Others like Mike could get it from life experiences..etc. I guess in a way their music depends on the mood your in. Just because I like it doesn't mean that anyone else has to.....And if I had to give them an overall rating outta 10, Id give em an 8/9 IMO. PS I just noticed where your avatar and sig come from.....Lunar Legend is one of my fav. games. ;D[/glow]
